Not impressed with this one, it was more of a tedious read for me

I was confused in the beginning pages, at one point it makes you think Faith is 13 then it goes on to say she's been in an institution for years, so then you wonder how old is she? I think she's 23 or so and in and out of mental hospitals all those years, so she gets released after all this time and she has to attend meetings everyday for one addiction or another, but yet throughout the book she is drinking all the time and it goes on and on about it over and over

I finally had to skip the biggest part of the middle and get to the part where you find out who was behind the horrific murder of her family and friends and the reason? greed

I read a lot of thrillers in this same genre and sometimes you can tell if it's well written or not by 100 pages and for me this is not, just has too much descriptions of the same thing over and over

The last few pages of the book where she goes back to the cabin of the crime was an eye opener
reviewed The Girl Who Lived on
Oh. My. Lanta. Y'all.

You ever read something and you know you are making crazy facial expressions but you you can't help it, even if your eyes are bugging out like a cartoon characters? That was me reading this book.

This book had me twirling in circles with who I thought did it, just like the poor main character. âThe girl who livedâ had her father, sister, best friend and her best friend's mom slaughtered and barely escaped the same fate when she was 13. After 10 years of being in and out of mental institutions, she is determined to look for the killer. The local PD closed the case saying her father killed them in a weird triple murder suicide because he was having an affair with her best friend's mom. The only issue? Faith saw parts of the two men responsible, and was chased down in the woods by them. As she works to figure out who destroyed her life, she struggles to not spiral out of control mentally as everyone around her becomes a suspect.

5/5 this book took me on a ride and I loved it.
